Planetary Magick

Since ancient Babylonian times, each day of the week (and hour) is governed by a specific planetary energy, or spirit. There were 7 classical planets, and each planet has corresponding associations relating to each one. 

These correspondences are used to enhance, amplify and align your magical practice. In Ritual magick, these associations are utilised to create seals and talismans, charge tools, or perform rituals invoking the planetary spirit to assist.
